When it comes to vacation rental amenities, certain features consistently rank as top-requested among travelers seeking the perfect getaway. These highly sought-after amenities not only enhance the overall guest experience but also contribute significantly to maximizing ROI for property owners.

We've hosted thousands of guests and compiled a list of the most requested features you can add right now to get more bookings! These (mostly) simple and inexpensive updates will make your home stand out and consistently earn higher revenue year over year. So, let's get started!

It's important to offer a basic desk and chair somewhere in the home. High speed internet is a must. Also, with more devices comes more chargers. We always get great reviews when we surprise guests with bedside power and phone charging stations. They LOVE IT!

Hot Tub is one of the top used filters by guests. If you don't have one, you won't show up in search results. Rental properties with hot tubs consistently out earn the average listing and generally see smaller swings in seasonal booking trends. Keep your property booked all year long with an investment that you'll love! One of the biggest ROI boosters you can invest in. 

Guests are often seeking the privacy of vacation homes to celebrate events and spend time together as a family. Vacation rentals offer a unique opportunity for travelers to cook wonderful meals right from their very own home. We love to suggest local farmers markets and grocers to get the supplies, but almost always the first question we get is... "Do you have a grill?"  

Nothing fancy is required and you can typically pick one up (or have us install one for you) from any hardware store for under $300.

Not only do they look amazing in dusk photography, guests rave about them in reviews! If your neighborhood has fire restrictions, a basic set of LED warm white string lights are easy to install and create the perfect ambiance for your guests. Nothing beats a cool summer evening around the fire! 

There is no cooler way for your guests to explore the local trails than by cruiser bike. Bikes also look great when staged professionally in listing photos and are sure to draw attention to your listing. This one is an easy addition and relatively inexpensive. We suggest offering at least 2 bikes per home along with a basic combo cable lock, tire pump and helmets.

Travelers will notice and reward you with 5-Star Reviews when a home is properly staged with sought after amenities. If you have questions, give us a call so we can help find the perfect amenity mix for your home!
